The MSU Office for Community Involvement (OCI) works to better connect campus resources
to meet community needs. Each year thousands of MSU students provide one-time or on-going service to hundreds of Bozeman area non-profit, school and governmental organizations as volunteers, interns, or work-study staff. The Gallatin Valley plays host to over 400 not-for-profit organizations working to address human service, environmental, emergency service, justice
and educational issues and challenges. As a land grant institution Montana State University
has, from inception, been committed to giving back to the people of Montana. One way in which this is done is through the services provided by our students to those in need. Take some time
and look around our website to find out about all the services we offer and the abundance of opportunities to get involved!
